Chapter 0574
“I do still have some contact that aren’t exactly happy with me but they hate Anthony more. Ann has decided to mess with his business affairs so they were happy to do shit. On top of that, I offered some rogues some money to attack their pack tonight and if they survived after doing a few things, they would get a bonus.” “So, what have you accomplished?” I asked. I had resumed my spot with a blanket and Alec had sat beside me.
However, he was leaning forward with his elbows on his knees.
“I'm sure you know what Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs are?” Gunther asked Alec. “What a Kharpa Beetle is?”
“I know what the Stink Bug is.” Alec confirmed.
“Tdon’t...I mean I do know what a stink bug is but what does that have to do with anything?” “They are highly invasive and reek havoc on their farm. It will ruin their crop.” Alec told me.
“Correct. The beetle thrives in grain bins and is on a quarantine list. If they find it, everything will be shut down.” “Where did you find all these?” Alec asked.
«you can find anything if you know where to look. The rogues Were able to distract the guards while I made my way to their farm land. Their job was to get close to the house and release
termites on their foundation.” Damn.” I was so happy and impressed.
This is playing the long game but I think it will benefit us in the long run. I have more I am going to do but this is the beginning.” Gunther shrugged.
“What else do you have planned?” Alec asked. He didn’t leave room for Gunther to refuse to answer.
«I have more rogues that are organizing an attack. My guy is looking at what other insects he can get his hands on. In the mean time, there are a few people that will be messing with the heater and air conditioner in the pack house.” “phat’s good. It’s a stal t.” I said asl took it all in.
-— bet “Anthony hasn’t put the fear in them the way you have so it's been easy to organise it.” Gunther shrugged like it ! was no big deal.
“Have you ate anything?” I asked.
Gunther looked at me confused for a moment before he answered. “Yeah. I did.” He opened his mouth a few times before closing it.
“Just ask or say what you want to.” I “The person you are here is not the person you were in the office.” «I have many talents.” Smiling slyly at him, I heard the dryer buzz.
standing up, I made my way into the Jaundry room. “Ghe isn’t one that you want to cross.” Alec said as soon as | had opened the dryer. A smile came to
my face. Grabbing his pants, I went to walk back but I stopped.
Digging in his pockets, I pulled out a few receipts. One was for a pet store.
He had bought a handful of mice. The next one was for a hotel. Slipping my phone out of my pocket, I took a picture of it before shoving them back into his pocket. noveldrama
“Here are your clothes.” Laying them on the couch, I got back under the blanket.
“Thank you.” Gunther took them and went to the bathroom. As soon as he came out, I got a glimpse of the clothes [ let him wear were folding on the counter.
«Can I return home tomorrow and see Kara?” Gunther asked.
Wy TV eave “Are you traveling by foot?” Alec asked.
“Tam.” We looked at his combat boots as he tied them around his pants. “Come on.
I'll drive you.” Alec stood up and walked to the door.
Gunther looked alarmed at me before looking over at Alec. “I can walk...” “Not in this weather.” Alec had his boots on and came over to me. “The hot tub is ready to go. Ill be backin a few hours. You don’t have to wait up.” He said before he kissed my forehead.
“Drive safe.” Twas extremely disappointed but there wasn't anything | could do about it Alec needed to dr ive Gunther. We couldn't
just send him out in this weather. It was the right thing to do.
They walked out and shut the door behind them. I waited until I heard his car drive off before I moved. There wasn’t a reason to wear a bathing suit so I grabbed a towel and got naked.
Alec was right. The hot tub was ready.
The lid was pulled back and the snow made a beautiful view. I wasn’t sure how long I laid there, but my body thoroughly massaged.
[ heard some rustling in the leaves that sent off warning bells. I wasn’t sure why but I decided it was time to get out. Trying to act normal as possible, I turned out all the lights and headed towards the bedroom. Grabbing some sweats and a t-shirt, | started looking around. It had only been an hour and
Alec would just be dropping Gunther off.
There was a 9mm hand gun under the night stand. Right as I reached down to grab it, a shadow ran across the room. I expected my fingers to feel cold steel but it was gone. The only thing that greeted my fingers was leather that was unsnapped.
Grabbing my phone off the top of my bed, I dialed Alec’s number.
Thankfully, he answered it on the first ring. “I’m on my way back, love.” “The gun is gone and something is outside.” I whispered. I didn’t have any lights on but I heard the power shut down. The alarm clock that was reflecting off the T.V. went out.
«pm coming! Can you make it to the safe room?”
The sound of his engine speeding greeted my ears but it was broken glass that really caused my wolf to come forward. “No. Some glass broke. I think they are inside.”
